Stromelysin 3 (ST3) is a matrix metalloprotease (MMP) expressed in fibroblast-like cells of most human invasive carcinomas. In this investigation, ST3 was measured by semiquantitative immunohistochemistry in I I I primary breast cancers. ST3 levels showed no correlation with tumor size, axillary-nod

## BACKGROUND. Expression of nm23 has been shown to be inversely correlated with the metastatic potential of several human cancers. In the current study, the expression and prognostic impact of nm23 was immunohistochemically studied in 413 curatively resected gastric carcinomas. ## METHODS. Tumor
## BACKGROUND. Components of the extracellular matrix play a fundamental role in the process of tumor invasion. The objective of this study was to evaluate the value of Type I collagen metabolites as tumor markers in patients with lung carcinoma. ## METHODS. In this study, the serum concentration
